Tips & Advice
- Purchase tickets online in advance to save money and guarantee entry, especially on weekends, as the farm may reach capacity.
- Check the schedule for weekend-only attractions like the Magic Show and Candy Cannon, which offer extra fun.
- While many attractions are included with entry, consider budgeting for additional fees for activities like Pony Rides, Camel Rides, and Gem Mining.
- On weekdays (excluding Columbus Day), you can access the cafe and market without purchasing an activity ticket, making it easier to grab a treat or shop.
- The Haunted House is designed for school-age children but is noted as scary; gauge your child's comfort level before entering.
